An example of coffee vending machines that would give you free coffee

Here is how coffee vending machines can give you free coffee...

If coffee vending machines is the title, then of course this page would be about the subject matter. Now, the thing is , which aspects of coffee vending machines would be talking about?

I guess if you are reading this page right now, you might be thinking I might go into the coffee vending machines business model or maybe even highlight how the vending machines works.

The truth is, I might just go into them later on as I grapple with how to use this hub pages thingy (hey, but hub pages folks, let me say that this is a cool platform you have here, for one, it is super easy to use...).

Okay, sorry for rattling on, what I would be highlighting is how YOU could benefit from coffee vending machines! I am going to run through 3 steps in which if well executed might get you free coffee as long as you are working there.

We spent most of our time and monies in office, and for some of us, a great portion of it is spent on coffee. So, rather than spending on coffee ourself, have you thought how great the idea would be, if the management can pick up the tab?

And, that is how coffee vending machines going to come in useful. For one, there are readily available, always thirstying to go into new companies and they would give free coffee samples and free on loan machines just to get your business.

This is all good stuff and you have to use it to your advantage. The first thing that you need to do is to ask the vending machines company, what they can sponsor. With the list of freebies in mind, go and approach your management.

You would tell them that you feel employees are wasting too much time, lowering their productivity drinking coffee, having a pantry corner would see this situation being mitigated.

Management would be pleased, but they would also asked you for a trial. Now, if you really want some free coffee samples, this is an area which you can have at least 6 months of trial. With so many companies vying for business, you can really choose and pick.

I have saved the best for the last, remember to do a survey before and after the coffee vending machines comes to your office. Trust me, the result would be very positive after the trial is over. Nobody wants the coffee machines to leave the office, so you would be sure to get positive feedback.

With the positive feedback, this is time to convince your boss to install the machine, in the name of motivation and productivity. In theory, if executed well with the right tempo, this would be a done deal...

By mixing and matching the freeze dried ingredients, your coffee stays consistently fresh all the time...

Why I says vending machines gives good coffee...

Hey, at this juncture, you might be thinking that well all is good that we are getting free coffee but as highlighted in the picture above, that is a table top vending machine.

Fact: Highlighted above bearing Nescafe logo is one of the most popular table top vending machine currently. Marketed by Nestle and it is estimated to have at least 70% of the table top vending machine business in Asia.

And what is so different between a table top vending machine and your usual automated vending machines? Actually, there is no difference. Both uses the freeze dried format and let me say that this is actually one thing that you are looking forward to.

The best value add of a coffee vending machines other than its ease of use and hassle free maintaintence is its consistency. We all know for a fact that coffee is perishable product.

Coffee stays fresh for less than a week after being roasted and only days after being grind. So, if you would to leave your roasted beans in the bean hopper for too long, chances are you would be drinking extremely sour coffee.

With a table top coffee vending machines, that would not happens. Due to their freeze dried technology, they last longer and with millions behind the freeze dried format, the cuppa that are brewed taste the same with every cups dispensed.

So, to many, vending equals to low grade coffee. But to me, for its consistency and hassle free format, it is a good coffee to have anytime, anywhere (all with a push of button).

This is their best coffee makers

Cheap and good coffee makers -is there such a thing?

Hi, there are many folks out there that asked me this "where can I find all the best coffee makers?". It might sound a bit impossible or even immature that there are folks asking such a question -I mean, how can there be a place that house all the best coffee makers?

Then again, you cannot blame them -if you are into coffee, starved for time and wanted a good and easy solutions, you likely would be one such person that asked such a question.

So, would I be providing you with a link or a place where one can find all the best coffee makers, my proposal to you would be ebay or amazon. Joke aside, they have such a huge range of coffee makers, I am sure you would find something you like.

There is definitely a best coffee maker, however, it is your own personal one and you have to try it , use it and love it. You cannot depend on other folks ratings and evaluations then adopt that best coffee maker to be your own.

Take this picture for example, this uncle most trusted "coffee maker" is the coffee socks that he is using. And not only he loves it, his whole family loves it, so are there are sites evaluating and giving stars for that "coffee maker".

I doubt so, but this is just my take on how to find THAT best coffee maker -it is your choice...

Amazon is another place you might find your best...

Vending machines to cool you down

Vending machines in the end is still about money...

I received some comments on why my vending machines is different from others, in the sense that it did not mentioned earning monies, but getting free coffee and stuff.

So, I decided to write a small post to show that YES, vending machines still can earn money (although not as much) and they remains to be the oldest form of passive income that is still surviving today...

But, I am going to write something different about the mode and ways that vending machines can earn you the monies. In my previous job, I was selling ingredients to vending machines company, both big and small, and you guess who are the ones making the money?

Well, it is atcually those one man operation that is earning a good income. And this is also a lesson to learn that meetings after all might be wasting time and money.

Just think about it, what is the major difference between big companies like Coke and small pop and mom vending machines company? well, the fact is big companies like coke should be more efficient because they are bigger and should enjoy better cost savings, however it is not so.

And from what I observed, there can only be one reason -the many "management staff" they have that do not know anything about vending machines and are always having meetings!

I am saying all these for 2 reasons, the next time, someone come out to you and say your idea cannot work, look at it from another angle. If you would to approach the big boys in vending and highlight you want to use it to make a living, they would tell you all the doom and gloom and if you are put off by it, then you would not enjoy the profits that the small vending companies are earning.

2nd reason is the question on meetings. As I highlighted, the only difference between big and small, losing and earning monies are the executives and the meetings! So, one wonder what is the need for all those meetings!!

How they dispense potatoes in Asia!

Hey, here we are talking about free and good coffee from table top vending machines, in Asia they are already vending potatoes!

It never occured to me that I could get free copy by changing my office coffee machine supplier - I suppose just calling up the current vendor and telling him to remove the machine would get him to offer - Cool Idea - Thanks for the hub!

Clever plan! You have made a serious study of how to get free coffee - who would have thought there was a whole book's worth of strategies for doing it?

I guess there are enough addicts around that there will always be a market for it!

There are so many coffee machines out there such as http://www.myflavia.com and the competition is high but how many taste good? Not many. If you can provide a good tasting coffee from a machine then you are to a winner. Good Luck

First - Regarding coffee vending machines. They are very popular right now and vending companies with coffee capabilities are shifting their focus to coffee.

Second - Larger vending companies have more meetings but also have more overheard tied up in other employees as well. I agree, the smaller operators have the potential to make much more in vending. Net profit margins can be as high as 35 % for single owner/operator with minimal outside help.

Cheers!

To be honest, I have never tasted really good coffee from a vending machine. You may have guessed that prefer ground coffee from a filter machine ;o). Seems like a really interesting idea though - best of luck

Having spent several tears in the office coffee industry, I can attest that these coffee vending machines are delivering much better tasting coffee these days. In the early days it was horrible. Technology has improved for sure.

Coffee Vending machines have come a long way initially all vending machines gave the same taste to coffee but now with innovative technologies in place one can vary the taste of coffee according to his/her taste buds and moods.

coffee makers review 15 months ago

The vending machines are just a quick fix for those in a hurry in my humble opinion. It doesn't event taste anywhere close to the real flavor of fresh beans, let a lone something to be enjoyed. The best vending machine coffee I have ever drunk doesn't taste better than instant coffee.

If you are fortunate enough to be able to place your coffee vending machines in the staff room of a school or business, you will do well with your vending machine business.
